The London Overground consisting of over 100 stations, including many within the Eastlondonlines boroughs has been given a makeover. With the new rebranding, the six rail lines have been allocated colours along with brand-new names.
The capital’s rich and diverse history inspired the new colours and names. Pic: TfL.
